  1. Cleaned out the IACV, there was a lot of gunk in it. Has improved it during driving but still getting the stumble on idle. Going try extending the pipe as mentioned. Can someone post the link to that garage thread evowrx is talking about, tried searching but couldn't find it. Thanks again.
  2. Hi, Thanks for all the input. That pipe from the inlet runs back into the brake booster. - normal? Yea I'm aware it needs a real good tidy up; how should the hoses be blocked up to prevent vacuum leaks, obviously not with a screw?
  3. Some photos encase someone can tell if this has been wired/hosed up wrong.
  4. Hi all, First off any help would be great, I'm currently at a loss of what to do next. I have searched high and low to find someone having a similar issue but haven't found anything. First off its a GC8 STI v5 with twisted turbo set up and FMIC. I picked it up for a good price but it needed a fair amount of work which I've been doing. Although this one problem I haven't been able to resolve...I don't know a lot about turbos. The symptoms Starts up fine and idles fine when cold - drives as normal when cold. Once warm when ever you put the clutch in to change gears it almost kills the engine....goes down to about 200 rpm then a second later it kicks back to life. Almost as if its telling itself hold on I'm meant to be on. About 15% of the time it will actually stall though - starts up fine again after that. It normally idles alright, some time it searches for a bit in the rpm before it settles. Not sure where to start - its not a MAF issue as it runs sweet its simply just when the clutch is depressed. BOV, waste gate? I'll put some pictures up soon once I work it out, haven't done it since the forums changed. - if anyone can help in regards to where they exactly go or what the issue might be would be awesome!.
  5. Thanks for the information - yes I will car jam it but the community usually knows more than car jam
  6. That was my initial thoughts although when I contacted him his sent me a dozen quality photos and sounded pretty truthful about everything. Cambelt was done in past 6 months - its all certified and legal. I only ask as the car is a good 4-5 hours away and dont want to waste the time if its got some bad history.
  7. The rego is gtq822 I\'ve looked it up on car jam but doesn\'t go into detail about whether it\'s type r. 1999 = v5?
  8. http://www.trademe.co.nz/motors/used-cars/subaru/auction-718708580.htm Hi, new to the forums and looking at purchasing this....anyone know the car or its history? Would I be correct in saying its a sti type R seems its a coupe? Any info would be helpful. Many thanks - sorry if this is wrong place to post.
